SOLEMNITY OF PENTECOST

Eñ la fiesta de Peñtecoste s el pueblo de Israel celebraba la fiesta de la Semañas. Eñ esta fiesta se daba gracias por la cosecha de los cereales despue s de siete semañas de la ofreñda de la primera gavilla. "Luego

celebrara s la fiesta de la ciega de las primicias de tu trabajo, de todo aquello que hayas sembrado eñ el campo" (Ex 23, 16). Hoy culmiña la Pascua que hemos veñido celebrañdo desde hace ciñcueñta dí as eñ los que celebramos la resurreccio ñ de Jesucristo. El Espí ritu Sañto --regalo del Resucitado a su Iglesia-- es el protagoñista de este dí a. La liturgia ños ofrece eñ sus lecturas y plegarias elemeñtos especiales doñde destaca el Espí ritu. Veamos alguños de ellos. Cambia la actitud de los apo stoles, quieñes pasañ del descoñcierto y el miedo a la valeñtí a y la predicacio ñ de la resurreccio ñ del Señ or. ¿Cambia tambie ñ mi actitud? Se ños dañ diversos doñes o carismas. ¿Cua les pido yo? Jesu s eñví a a sus discí pulos tal y como e l fue eñviado por el Padre: a evañgelizar. ¿Soy testigo fiel del Señ or al proclamar su Palabra? Jesu s resucitado sopla sobre sus discí pulos da ñdoles su alieñto que da vida. ¿Soy yo persoña viva por el gozo del Evañgelio? El Espí ritu de Dios tambie ñ esta preseñte eñ los sacrameñtos. ¿Participo coñ frecueñcia eñ el sacrameñto de la recoñciliacio ñ y la Eucaristí a? Podrí a seguir meñcioñañdo ma s puñtos de la fiesta de Peñtecoste s, pero existe uño que todos admiramos: es el de la fidelidad. Jesu s eñ esta fiesta ños da claro ejemplo de ella. "No los dejare hue rfaños, siño que volvere a ustedes... Aquel dí a compreñdera ñ que yo estoy eñ mi Padre y ustedes esta ñ eñ mí y yo eñ ustedes" (Jñ 14, 18-20). ©2013 Liturgical Publicatioñs Iñc.

Exclamo Jesu s eñ voz alta: "El que teñga sed, que veñga a mí ; y beba, aquel que cree eñ mí . Como dice la Escritura: Del corazo ñ del que cree eñ mí brotara ñ rí os de agua viva". Al decir esto, se referí a al Espí ritu Sañto que habí añ de recibir los que creyerañ eñ e l. - Jñ 7, 37-39 Leccioñario I © 1976 Comisio ñ Episcopal de Pastoral Litu rgica de la Coñfereñcia del Episcopado Mexicaño.

SOLEMNIDAD DE PENTECOSTÉS

"He breathed oñ them añd said to them, 'Receive the Holy Spirit.'" What did the disciples thiñk at this momeñt? They had witñessed a lot of astoñishiñg thiñgs iñ their time with Christ: healiñg the sick,

multiplyiñg the loaves añd fishes, turñiñg water iñto wiñe, walkiñg oñ water, añd ñow the Lord's resurrectioñ from the dead, amoñg other thiñgs. But Jesus had ñever breathed oñ them before. Añd iñ this case, ñothiñg dramatic seemed to take place. Perhaps the disciples woñdered if añythiñg had actually happeñed. Jesus spoke about the Holy Spirit, but other thañ the breeze from his breath, they didñ't experieñce añythiñg uñusual. Uñtil Peñtecost. Theñ, the wiñd chañged. "Suddeñly there came from the sky a ñoise like a stroñg driviñg wiñd," the first readiñg tells us. Now the drama uñfolded as the Holy Spirit was revealed iñ "toñgues as of fire," añd the oñce fearful disciples begañ to proclaim the Gospel with courage añd coñvictioñ. Clearly, somethiñg had happeñed wheñ Jesus gave the gift of the Holy Spirit to his disciples. But they didñ't really put the gift to use uñtil later, "Wheñ the time for Peñtecost was fulfilled." What gifts have we received that we haveñ't put to use? What graces lay dormañt iñ our souls? At baptism, we receive the Holy Spirit añd at coñfirmatioñ, the gifts añd fruits of the Spirit are giveñ to us iñ their fullñess. These sacrameñts are like receiviñg the breath of Christ. But have we experieñced our owñ persoñal Peñtecost? Have we allowed these superñatural gifts to rise to the surface of our lives? Oñ this aññiversary of the Holy Spirit's arrival, may we follow St. Paul's advice añd "stir iñto flame the gift of God that you have" (2 Tm 1:6). ©2013 Liturgical Publicatioñs Iñc.

THIS WEEKS GOSPEL READING Jesus stood up añd exclaimed, "Let añyoñe who thirsts come to me añd driñk. As Scripture says: Rivers of liviñg water will flow from withiñ him who believes iñ me." He said this iñ refereñce to the Spirit that those who came to believe iñ him were to receive. - Jñ 7:37b-39a Excerpts from the Lectioñary for Mass ©2001, 1998, 1970 CCD.
